melted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason it maintains only a half-meter thickness is because of the strong winds in the Northern Border!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Endless gales sweep the snow away, carrying it from this land.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is a small mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin isn’t sure what the mountain is called, but he knows

smoking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only during smoking can he stop pondering over schemes and enjoy a moment of peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin is very tired!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But without

kneel at the foot of Demarco Mount!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin wants to rise above the masses!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Phew...\" A mouthful of thick smoke is exhaled, and Devlin opens his

of sunglasses from his bosom and gently puts them on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, Devlin wasn’t clear about what the \"Opening Sky Book\" was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when he placed the blade on Cristiano Grey’s neck, he finally got some information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"Opening Sky Book\" seemingly records renowned historical figures, famed swords, and legendary beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin needs to find the \"Opening Sky Book\" to first verify the authenticity of the Heaven Piercer in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the news he received.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, Jesse River seemed to have found the Heaven Piercer accidentally because of Sutton’s divination request.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And disappeared from this world with the Heaven Piercer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin holds the Heaven Piercer in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this one isn’t the one Jesse River hid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If with a fake Heaven Piercer, he attempts to command the Emperor, he might face a miserable end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Concerning the most crucial step in ascending Demarco Mount to the supreme throne, Devlin must proceed with caution!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if the blade in his hand can kill the immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that doesn’t mean the Overlord Sword is genuine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gazing at the one-meter-long Heaven Piercer in his hand, Devlin removes his gloves, his fingers gently caressing the patterns on the blade.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A golden dragon passed through three skulls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then came mountains and rivers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Five Great Mountains!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the hilt of the sword, there was a mask engraved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mask was strange, Devlin had never seen it before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire sword was fiercely imposing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It exuded a killing aura!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even at a meter’s distance, members of the Undead Tribe shivered all over, feeling uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin was slightly surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes fell on an inconspicuous spot below the mask on the hilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There seemed to be a symbol there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hexagram!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the star, there was also a card!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin squinted his eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body tensed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the hand holding the ominous sword began to tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a deep drag from his cigarette, trying to calm himself down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But not only did he fail to calm down, his hand shook even more!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cristiano, help me check this symbol.\" Devlin tossed away the cigarette butt, took out his phone, snapped a picture, and called Cristiano.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The highest commander of the Undead Tribe in the Town was Cristiano!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the four kneeling in the back hills of Swimming City with Emperor Charlotte Grey and others!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enlistment of Caelum Danvers by Cristiano was all orchestrated by Devlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under coercion and enticement, this general of the Undead Tribe had already succumbed to Devlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Devlin, please hold on a moment,\" Cristiano’s deep and hoarse voice came through the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As soon as possible,\" Devlin said in a frantic and disordered state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a little scared!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he very much wanted to know the answer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mysterious pattern did not match the other patterns on the sword at all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ominous sword that could shatter the sky!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ensconced in fierce dominance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Capable of destroying everything!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But why was there a hexagram?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in the center of the star, a card emblem?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Different from the others!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shattering sword was Devlin’s final trump card!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This trump card could not afford failure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling the information obtained today, Devlin’s heartbeat quickened!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop the car!\" he rolled down the window, leaned his head out, and took deep breaths of cold air!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The icy chill invaded his lungs, stinging with the smoke, making him cough uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin’s heart was in pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he plotted was the world!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he faced were monsters!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single misstep, and his bones would be gone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every day Devlin lived in constant fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t believe in gods!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nor did he believe in Buddha!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only believed in himself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, he clasped his hands together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uncertain as to whom he was praying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phone rang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin shot up as if struck by a million volts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole person sprang up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Staring at the screen, at Cristiano’s name!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was terrified!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uneasy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speak...\" Devlin shakily slid the answer button, his right hand covering his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Devlin, I have
